Patches for Alpha Releases of Alpine

Welcome! The purpose of this page is to offer a collection of patches for
alpha releases of the mail and news program Alpine, in order to add new or
missing features or fix small bugs. Usual disclaimers about suitability
for any purpose or any express guarantee apply. This means that you have
to use these patches at your own risk. Having said that, I use and
actively support most of the patches in this web page, see below.

Alpha releases of alpine are available for a worldwide audience. You can
subscribe
to the alpine alpha mailing list to receive announcements of new releases, or
request new features, or report bugs.

Additionally, access to the latest snapshot is available by running the command

svn checkout https://svn.cac.washington.edu/public/alpine/snapshots/

In case you don't know what a patch is, or why you would care about one,
read my FAQ on patches.
